The heteroatom(s) (e.g., O, N, S, Si, or P) may be placed at any interior position of the heteroalkyl group or at the position at which the alkyl group is attached to the remainder of the molecule. Heteroalkyl is an uncyclized chain.

A fused ring aryl refers to multiple rings fused together wherein at least one of the fused rings is an aryl ring and wherein the multiple rings are attached to the parent molecular moiety through any carbon atom contained within an aryl ring of the multiple rings. The term “heteroaryl” refers to aryl groups (or rings) that contain at least one heteroatom such as N, O, or S, wherein the nitrogen and sulfur atoms are optionally oxidized, and the nitrogen atom(s) are optionally quatemized. Thus, the term “heteroaryl” includes fused ring heteroaryl groups (i.e., multiple rings fused together wherein at least one of the fused rings is a heteroaromatic ring and wherein the multiple rings are attached to the parent molecular moiety through any atom contained within a heteroaromatic ring of the multiple rings).

[0086] Substituents for the alkyl and heteroalkyl radicals (including those groups often referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) can be one or more of a variety of groups selected from, but not limited to, -OR', =0, =NR', =N-OR', -NR'R", -SR', -halogen, - SiR'R"R'", -OC(0)R', -C(0)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R", -OC(0)NR'R", -NR"C(0)R', -NR'- C(0)NR"R'", -NR"C(0)2R', -NR-C(NR'R"R'")=NR"", -NR-C(NR'R")=NR'", -S(0)R', - S(0)2R', -S(0)2NR'R", -NRSO2R', -NR'NR"R'", -ONR'R", -NR'C(0)NR"NR'"R"", -CN, - NO2, -NR'SOiR", -NR'C(0)R", -NR'C(0)-OR", -NR'OR", in a number ranging from zero to (2m'+l), where m' is the total number of carbon atoms in such radical. R, R', R", R'", and R"" each preferably independently refer to hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl (e.g., aryl substituted with 1-3 halogens), substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy, or thioalkoxy groups, or arylalkyl groups. When a compound described herein includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R', R", R'", and R"" group when more than one of these groups is present. When R' and R" are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can be combined with the nitrogen atom to form a 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7- membered ring. For example, -NR'R" includes, but is not limited to, 1-pyrrolidinyl and 4- morpholinyl. From the above discussion of substituents, one of skill in the art will understand that the term “alkyl” is meant to include groups including carbon atoms bound to groups other than hydrogen groups, such as haloalkyl (e.g., -CF3 and -CH2CF3) and acyl (e.g., - C(0)CH3, -C(0)CF3, -C(0)CH20CH3, and the like).
[0087] Similar to the substituents described for the alkyl radical, substituents for the aryl and heteroaryl groups are varied and are selected from, for example: -OR', -NR'R", -SR', - halogen, -SiR'R"R'", -0C(0)R', -C(0)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R", -0C(0)NR'R", -NR"C(0)R', - NR'-C(0)NR"R'", -NR"C(0)2R', -NR-C(NR'R"R'")=NR"", -NR-C(NR'R")=NR'", -S(0)R', - S(0)2R', -S(0)2NR'R", -NRSO2R', -NR'NR"R'", -ONR'R", -NR'C(0)NR"NR'"R"", -CN, - NO2, -R', -N3, -CH(Ph)2, fluoro(Ci-C4)alkoxy, and fluoro(Ci-C4)alkyl, -NR'S02R", - NR'C(0)R", -NR'C(0)-0R", -NR'OR", in a number ranging from zero to the total number of open valences on the aromatic ring system; and where R', R", R'", and R"" are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. When a compound described herein includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R', R", R'", and R"" groups when more than one of these groups is present.
[0088] Substituents for rings (e.g. cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkylene, heterocycloalkylene, arylene, or heteroarylene) may be depicted as substituents on the ring rather than on a specific atom of a ring (commonly referred to as a floating substituent). In such a case, the substituent may be attached to any of the ring atoms (obeying the rules of chemical valency) and in the case of fused rings or spirocyclic rings, a substituent depicted as associated with one member of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings (a floating substituent on a single ring), may be a substituent on any of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings (a floating substituent on multiple rings). When a substituent is attached to a ring, but not a specific atom (a floating substituent), and a subscript for the substituent is an integer greater than one, the multiple substituents may be on the same atom, same ring, different atoms, different fused rings, different spirocyclic rings, and each substituent may optionally be different. Where a point of attachment of a ring to the remainder of a molecule is not limited to a single atom (a floating substituent), the attachment point may be any atom of the ring and in the case of a fused ring or spirocyclic ring, any atom of any of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings while obeying the rules of chemical valency. Where a ring, fused rings, or spirocyclic rings contain one or more ring heteroatoms and the ring, fused rings, or spirocyclic rings are shown with one more floating substituents (including, but not limited to, points of attachment to the remainder of the molecule), the floating substituents may be bonded to the heteroatoms. Where the ring heteroatoms are shown bound to one or more hydrogens (e.g. a ring nitrogen with two bonds to ring atoms and a third bond to a hydrogen) in the structure or formula with the floating substituent, when the heteroatom is bonded to the floating substituent, the substituent will be understood to replace the hydrogen, while obeying the rules of chemical valency.
[0089] Two or more substituents may optionally be joined to form aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocycloalkyl groups. Such so-called ring-forming substituents are typically, though not necessarily, found attached to a cyclic base structure. In one embodiment, the ring-forming substituents are attached to adjacent members of the base structure. For example, two ring-forming substituents attached to adjacent members of a cyclic base structure create a fused ring structure. In another embodiment, the ring-forming substituents are attached to a single member of the base structure. For example, two ring-forming substituents attached to a single member of a cyclic base structure create a spirocyclic structure. In yet another embodiment, the ring-forming substituents are attached to non- adjacent members of the base structure.
[0090] Two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally form a ring of the formula -T-C(0)-(CRR')q-U-, wherein T and U are independently -NR-, -0-, -CRR'-, or a single bond, and q is an integer of from 0 to 3. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula -A-(CH2)r-B-, wherein A and B are independently -CRR'-, -0-, -NR-, -S-, -S(O) -, -S(0)2-, -S(0)2NR'-, or a single bond, and r is an integer of from 1 to 4. One of the single bonds of the new ring so formed may optionally be replaced with a double bond. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula - (CRR')s-X'- (C"R"R"')d-, where s and d are independently integers of from 0 to 3, and X' is - 0-, -NR'-, -S-, -S(O)-, -S(0)2-, or -S(0)2NR'-. The substituents R, R', R", and R'" are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl.

In embodiments, the terms “heteroatom” or “ring heteroatom” are meant to include oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), phosphorus (P), and silicon (Si).

[0103] Certain compounds of the present disclosure possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical or chiral centers) or double bonds; the enantiomers, racemates, diastereomers, tautomers, geometric isomers, stereoisometric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (i?)-or ( S )- or, as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids, and individual isomers are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. The compounds of the present disclosure do not include those that are known in art to be too unstable to synthesize and/or isolate. The present disclosure is meant to include compounds in racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (R)- and ( S )-, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers.
[0104] As used herein, the term “isomers” refers to compounds having the same number and kind of atoms, and hence the same molecular weight, but differing in respect to the structural arrangement or configuration of the atoms.
[0105] The term “tautomer,” as used herein, refers to one of two or more structural isomers which exist in equilibrium and which are readily converted from one isomeric form to another.
[0106] It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that certain compounds of this disclosure may exist in tautomeric forms, all such tautomeric forms of the compounds being within the scope of the disclosure.
[0107] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include all stereochemical forms of the structure; i.e., the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric and diastereomeric mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the disclosure.
[0108] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include compounds which differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures except for the replacement of a hydrogen by a deuterium or tritium, or the replacement of a carbon by 13C- or 14C-enriched carbon are within the scope of this disclosure.
[0109] The compounds of the present disclosure may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as for example tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I), or carbon-14 (14C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present disclosure, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0110] It should be noted that throughout the application that alternatives are written in Markush groups, for example, each amino acid position that contains more than one possible amino acid. It is specifically contemplated that each member of the Markush group should be considered separately, thereby including another embodiment, and the Markush group is not to be read as a single unit. [0111] As used herein, the terms “bioconjugate” and “bioconjugate reactive moiety” refers to the resulting association between atoms or molecules of bioconjugate reactive groups. The association can be direct or indirect. For example, a conjugate between a first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., -N¾, -C(0)0H, -N-hydroxysuccinimide, or -maleimide) and a second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., sulfhydryl, sulfur-containing amino acid, amine, amine sidechain containing amino acid, or carboxylate) provided herein can be direct, e.g., by covalent bond or linker (e.g. a first linker of second linker), or indirect, e.g., by non-covalent bond (e.g. electrostatic interactions (e.g. ionic bond, hydrogen bond, halogen bond), van der Waals interactions (e.g. dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, London dispersion), ring stacking (pi effects), hydrophobic interactions and the like). In embodiments, bioconjugates or bioconjugate linkers are formed using bioconjugate chemistry (i.e. the association of two bioconjugate reactive groups) including, but are not limited to nucleophilic substitutions (e.g., reactions of amines and alcohols with acyl halides, active esters), electrophilic substitutions (e.g., enamine reactions) and additions to carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom multiple bonds (e.g., Michael reaction, Diels-Alder addition). These and other useful reactions are discussed in, for example, March, ADVANCED ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, 3rd Ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1985; Hermanson, BIOCONJUGATE TECHNIQUES, Academic Press, San Diego, 1996; and Feeney et al., MODIFICATION OF PROTEINS; Advances in Chemistry Series, Vol. 198, American Chemical Society, Washington, D.C., 1982. In embodiments, the first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., maleimide moiety) is covalently attached to the second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g. a sulfhydryl).

[0113] The bioconjugate reactive groups can be chosen such that they do not participate in, or interfere with, the chemical stability of the conjugate described herein. Alternatively, a reactive functional group can be protected from participating in the crosslinking reaction by the presence of a protecting group. In embodiments, the bioconjugate comprises a molecular entity derived from the reaction of an unsaturated bond, such as a maleimide, and a sulfhydryl group.
[0114] “Analog,” or “analogue” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning within Chemistry and Biology and refers to a chemical compound that is structurally similar to another compound (i.e., a so-called “reference” compound) but differs in composition, e.g., in the replacement of one atom by an atom of a different element, or in the presence of a particular functional group, or the replacement of one functional group by another functional group, or the absolute stereochemistry of one or more chiral centers of the reference compound. Accordingly, an analog is a compound that is similar or comparable in function and appearance but not in structure or origin to a reference compound.
[0115] The terms "a" or "an," as used in herein means one or more. In addition, the phrase "substituted with a[n]," as used herein, means the specified group may be substituted with one or more of any or all of the named substituents. For example, where a group, such as an alkyl or heteroaryl group, is "substituted with an unsubstituted C1-C20 alkyl, or unsubstituted 2 to 20 membered heteroalkyl," the group may contain one or more unsubstituted C1-C20 alkyls, and/or one or more unsubstituted 2 to 20 membered heteroalkyls.
[0116] Moreover, where a moiety is substituted with an R substituent, the group may be referred to as “R-substituted.” Where a moiety is R-substituted, the moiety is substituted with at least one R substituent and each R substituent is optionally different. Where a particular R group is present in the description of a chemical genus (such as Formula (I)), a Roman alphabetic symbol may be used to distinguish each appearance of that particular R group. For example, where multiple R13 substituents are present, each R13 substituent may be distinguished as R13A, R13B, R13C, R13D, etc., wherein each of R13A, R13B, R13C, R13D, etc. is defined within the scope of the definition of R13 and optionally differently.
[0117] “Oxidizing agent” is used in accordance with its ordinary plain meaning within chemistry and biology and refers to a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances (i.e. removes electrons from the substance). The term “oxidizing agent” is a substance that, in the course of a chemical redox reaction, removes one or more electrons from a substance (e.g., the reactant), wherein the oxidizing agent gains one or more electrons from the substrate. In embodiments, an oxidizing agent is a chemical species that transfers electronegative atoms to another substrate (e.g., a reactant). In embodiments, the oxidizing agent is analogous to the term “electron acceptor” and may be used herein interchangeably. Non-limiting examples of oxidizing agents include oxygen (O2), ozone (O3), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitric acid (HNO3), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hexavalent chromium, pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC), iV-methylmorpholine-iV-oxide (NMO), chromium trioxide (CrC>3, Jones reagent), potassium permanganate (K2Mhq4), potassium nitrate (KNO3), Dess- Martin periodinane (DMP), 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX), 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy (TEMPO), and Selectfluor® (F-TEDA-BF4, chloromethyl-4-fluoro-l,4- diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bis(tetrafluoroborate), potassium perchlorate, or ammonium persulfate.
[0118] The term “halogenating agent” is used in accordance with its ordinary plain meaning within chemistry and refers to a substance (e.g., compound or composition) that has the ability to incorporate one or more halogen atoms (e.g. bromination, dibromination tribromination, chlorination, dichlorination, trichlorination, iodination, diiodination, triiodination, fluorination, difluorination, trifluorination, etc.) into another substance (e.g., compound or composition). Halogenating agents include chlorinating agents, brominating agents, iodinating agents and fluorinating agents, wherein a chlorinating agent incorporates a chlorine atom, a brominating agent incorporates a bromine atom, an iodinating agent incorporates an iodine atom, or a fluorinating agent incorporates a fluorine atom.

In embodiments, the halogenating agent is not a fluorinating agent.
[0119] Descriptions of compounds of the present disclosure are limited by principles of chemical bonding known to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, where a group may be substituted by one or more of a number of substituents, such substitutions are selected so as to comply with principles of chemical bonding and to give compounds which are not inherently unstable and/or would be known to one of ordinary skill in the art as likely to be unstable under ambient conditions, such as aqueous, neutral, and several known physiological conditions. For example, a heterocycloalkyl or heteroaryl is attached to the remainder of the molecule via a ring heteroatom in compliance with principles of chemical bonding known to those skilled in the art thereby avoiding inherently unstable compounds.
[0120] The term “leaving group” is used in accordance with its ordinary meaning in chemistry and refers to a moiety (e.g., atom, functional group, molecule) that separates from the molecule following a chemical reaction (e.g., bond formation, reductive elimination, condensation, cross-coupling reaction) involving an atom or chemical moiety to which the leaving group is attached, also referred to herein as the “leaving group reactive moiety”, and a complementary reactive moiety (i.e. a chemical moiety that reacts with the leaving group reactive moiety) to form a new bond between the remnants of the leaving groups reactive moiety and the complementary reactive moiety. Thus, the leaving group reactive moiety and the complementary reactive moiety form a complementary reactive group pair. Non limiting examples of leaving groups include hydrogen, hydroxide, organotin moieties (e.g., organotin heteroalkyl), halogen (e.g., Br), perfluoroalkylsulfonates (e.g. triflate), tosylates, mesylates, water, alcohols, nitrate, phosphate, thioether, amines, ammonia, fluoride, carboxylate, phenoxides, boronic acid, boronate esters, and alkoxides. In embodiments, two molecules with leaving groups are allowed to contact, and upon a reaction and/or bond formation (e.g., acyloin condensation, aldol condensation, Claisen condensation, Stille reaction) the leaving groups separates from their respective molecule. In embodiments, a leaving group is a bioconjugate reactive moiety. In embodiments, at least two leaving groups (e.g., R1 and R13) are allowed to contact such that the leaving groups are sufficiently proximal to react, interact or physically touch. In embodiments, the leaving group is designed to facilitate the reaction.
[0121] The term “protecting group” is used in accordance with its ordinary meaning in organic chemistry and refers to a moiety covalently bound to a heteroatom to prevent reactivity of the heteroatom during one or more chemical reactions performed prior to removal of the protecting group. In embodiments, the protecting group is covalently bound to a heteroatom that is part of a heteroalkyl, heterocycloalkyl or heteroaryl moiety. Typically a protecting group is bound to a heteroatom (e.g., O) during a part of a multistep synthesis wherein it is not desired to have the heteroatom react (e.g., a chemical reduction) with a reagent. Following protection the protecting group may be removed (e.g., by modulating the pH). In embodiments the protecting group is an alcohol protecting group. Non-limiting examples of alcohol protecting groups include acetyl, benzoyl, benzyl, methoxymethyl ether (MOM), tetrahydropyranyl (THP), and silyl ether (e.g., trimethylsilyl (TMS), tert- butyl dimethylsilyl (TBS)). In embodiments the protecting group is an amine protecting group. Non-limiting examples of amine protecting groups include carbobenzyloxy (Cbz), p- methoxybenzyl carbonyl (Moz or MeOZ), ter/-butyl oxycarbonyl (BOC), 9- fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC), acetyl (Ac), benzoyl (Bz), benzyl (Bn), carbamate, p- methoxybenzyl ether (PMB), 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl (DMPM), p-methoxyphenyl (PMP), pivaloyl (Piv), tosyl (Ts), and phthalimide.
[0122] A person of ordinary skill in the art will understand when a variable (e.g., moiety or linker) of a compound or of a compound genus (e.g., a genus described herein) is described by a name or formula of a standalone compound with all valencies filled, the unfilled valence(s) of the variable will be dictated by the context in which the variable is used. For example, when a variable of a compound as described herein is connected (e.g., bonded) to the remainder of the compound through a single bond, that variable is understood to represent a monovalent form (i.e., capable of forming a single bond due to an unfilled valence) of a standalone compound (e.g., if the variable is named “methane” in an embodiment but the variable is known to be attached by a single bond to the remainder of the compound, a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the variable is actually a monovalent form of methane, i.e., methyl or -CH3). Likewise, for a linker variable (e.g., L1, L2, or L3 as described herein), a person of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the variable is the divalent form of a standalone compound (e.g., if the variable is assigned to “PEG” or “polyethylene glycol” in an embodiment but the variable is connected by two separate bonds to the remainder of the compound, a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the variable is a divalent (i.e., capable of forming two bonds through two unfilled valences) form of PEG instead of the standalone compound PEG).
[0123] The term “exogenous” refers to a molecule or substance (e.g., a compound, nucleic acid or protein) that originates from outside a given cell or organism. For example, an "exogenous promoter" as referred to herein is a promoter that does not originate from the plant it is expressed by. Conversely, the term "endogenous" or "endogenous promoter" refers to a molecule or substance that is native to, or originates within, a given cell or organism.
[0124] The term “lipid moiety” is used in accordance with its ordinary meaning in chemistry and refers to a hydrophobic molecule which is typically characterized by an aliphatic hydrocarbon chain. In embodiments, the lipid moiety includes a carbon chain of 3 to 100 carbons. In embodiments, the lipid moiety includes a carbon chain of 5 to 50 carbons. In embodiments, the lipid moiety includes a carbon chain of 5 to 25 carbons. In embodiments, the lipid moiety includes a carbon chain of 8 to 25 carbons. Lipid moieties may include saturated or unsaturated carbon chains, and may be optionally substituted. In embodiments, the lipid moiety is optionally substituted with a charged moiety at the terminal end. In embodiments, the lipid moiety is an alkyl or heteroalkyl optionally substituted with a carboxylic acid moiety at the terminal end.
[0125] A charged moiety refers to a functional group possessing an abundance of electron density (i.e. electronegative) or is deficient in electron density (i.e. electropositive). Nonlimiting examples of a charged moiety includes carboxylic acid, alcohol, phosphate, aldehyde, and sulfonamide. In embodiments, a charged moiety is capable of forming hydrogen bonds.
[0126] The term “coupling reagent” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the arts and refers to a substance (e.g., a compound or solution) which participates in chemical reaction and results in the formation of a covalent bond (e.g., between bioconjugate reactive moieties, between a bioconjugate reactive moiety and the coupling reagent). In embodiments, the level of reagent is depleted in the course of a chemical reaction. This is in contrast to a solvent, which typically does not get consumed over the course of the chemical reaction. Non-limiting examples of coupling reagents include benzotriazol-l-yl- oxytripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP), 7-Azabenzotriazol-l- yloxy)tripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyAOP), 6-Chloro-benzotriazole-l- yloxy-tris-pyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyClock), 1- [Bis(dimethylamino)methylene] - 1 H- 1 ,2,3 -triazolo [4, 5 -b]pyridinium 3 -oxid hexafluorophosphate (HATU), or 2-(lH-benzotriazol-l-yl)-l,l,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HBTU).
[0127] The term “solution” is used in accor and refers to a liquid mixture in which the minor component (e.g., a solute or compound) is uniformly distributed within the major component (e.g., a solvent).

[0130] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” is meant to include salts of the active compounds that are prepared with relatively nontoxic acids or bases, depending on the particular substituents found on the compounds described herein. When compounds of the present disclosure contain relatively acidic functionalities, base addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired base, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amino, or magnesium salt, or a similar salt. When compounds of the present disclosure contain relatively basic functionalities, acid addition salts can be obtained by contacting the neutral form of such compounds with a sufficient amount of the desired acid, either neat or in a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include those derived from inorganic acids like hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, carbonic, monohydrogencarbonic, phosphoric, monohydrogenphosphoric, dihydrogenphosphoric, sulfuric, monohydrogensulfuric, hydriodic, or phosphorous acids and the like, as well as the salts derived from relatively nontoxic organic acids like acetic, propionic, isobutyric, maleic, malonic, benzoic, succinic, suberic, fumaric, lactic, mandelic, phthalic, benzenesulfonic, p- tolylsulfonic, citric, tartaric, oxalic, methanesulfonic, and the like. Also included are salts of amino acids such as arginate and the like, and salts of organic acids like glucuronic or galactunoric acids and the like (see, for example, Berge et al, “Pharmaceutical Salts”, Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 1977, 66, 1-19). Certain specific compounds of the present disclosure contain both basic and acidic functionalities that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts. [0131] Thus, the compounds of the present disclosure may exist as salts, such as with pharmaceutically acceptable acids. The present disclosure includes such salts. Non-limiting examples of such salts include hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, phosphates, sulfates, methanesulfonates, nitrates, maleates, acetates, citrates, fumarates, proprionates, tartrates (e.g., (+)-tartrates, (-)-tartrates, or mixtures thereof including racemic mixtures), succinates, benzoates, and salts with amino acids such as glutamic acid, and quaternary ammonium salts (e.g. methyl iodide, ethyl iodide, and the like). These salts may be prepared by methods known to those skilled in the art.
[0132] The neutral forms of the compounds are preferably regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compound in the conventional manner. The parent form of the compound may differ from the various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents.
[0133] In addition to salt forms, the present disclosure provides compounds, which are in a prodrug form. Prodrugs of the compounds described herein are those compounds that readily undergo chemical changes under physiological conditions to provide the compounds of the present disclosure. Prodrugs of the compounds described herein may be converted in vivo after administration. Additionally, prodrugs can be converted to the compounds of the present disclosure by chemical or biochemical methods in an ex vivo environment, such as, for example, when contacted with a suitable enzyme or chemical reagent.
[0134] Certain compounds of the present disclosure can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. Certain compounds of the present disclosure may exist in multiple crystalline or amorphous forms. In general, all physical forms are equivalent for the uses contemplated by the present disclosure and are intended to be within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0135] “Pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” and “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refer to a substance that aids the administration of an active agent to and absorption by a subject and can be included in the compositions of the present disclosure without causing a significant adverse toxicological effect on the patient. Non-limiting examples of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include water, NaCl, normal saline solutions, lactated Ringer’s, normal sucrose, normal glucose, binders, fillers, disintegrants, lubricants, coatings, sweeteners, flavors, salt solutions (such as Ringer's solution), alcohols, oils, gelatins, carbohydrates such as lactose, amylose or starch, fatty acid esters, hydroxymethycellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidine, and colors, and the like. Such preparations can be sterilized and, if desired, mixed with auxiliary agents such as lubricants, preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for influencing osmotic pressure, buffers, coloring, and/or aromatic substances and the like that do not deleteriously react with the compounds of the disclosure. One of skill in the art will recognize that other pharmaceutical excipients are useful in the present disclosure.
[0136] The term "preparation" is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component with or without other carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.
[0137] As used herein, the term "about” means a range of values including the specified value, which a person of ordinary skill in the art would consider reasonably similar to the specified value. In embodiments, about means within a standard deviation using measurements generally acceptable in the art. In embodiments, about means a range extending to +/- 10% of the specified value. In embodiments, about includes the specified value.
[0138] A “synergistic amount” as used herein refers to the sum of a first amount (e.g., an amount of a compound provided herein) and a second amount (e.g., a therapeutic agent) that results in a synergistic effect (i.e. an effect greater than an additive effect). Therefore, the terms "synergy", "synergism", "synergistic", "combined synergistic amount", and "synergistic therapeutic effect" which are used herein interchangeably, refer to a measured effect of the compound administered in combination where the measured effect is greater than the sum of the individual effects of each of the compounds provided herein administered alone as a single agent.

In embodiments, the EC50 is the concentration of a molecule (e.g., antibody, chimeric antigen receptor or bispecific antibody) that produces 50% of the maximal possible effect of that molecule.
[0141] The terms “bind” and “bound” as used herein is used in accordance with its plain and ordinary meaning and refers to the association between atoms or molecules. The association can be direct or indirect. For example, bound atoms or molecules may be direct, e.g., by covalent bond or linker (e.g. a first linker or second linker), or indirect, e.g., by non-covalent bond (e.g. electrostatic interactions (e.g. ionic bond, hydrogen bond, halogen bond), van der Waals interactions (e.g. dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, London dispersion), ring stacking (pi effects), hydrophobic interactions and the like).
[0142] The term “capable of binding” as used herein refers to a moiety (e.g. a compound as described herein) that is able to measurably bind to a target (e.g., GNAS).

[0143] As used herein, the term "conjugated” when referring to two moieties means the two moieties are bonded, wherein the bond or bonds connecting the two moieties may be covalent or non-covalent. In embodiments, the two moieties are covalently bonded to each other (e.g. directly or through a covalently bonded intermediary). In embodiments, the two moieties are non-covalently bonded (e.g. through ionic bond(s), van der waal’s bond(s)/interactions, hydrogen bond(s), polar bond(s), or combinations or mixtures thereof).
[0144] The term “non-nucleophilic base” as used herein refers to any sterically hindered base that is a poor nucleophile.

Examples of common strong acids include hydrochloric acid (HC1), nitric acid (HNO3), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hydrobromic acid (HBr), hydroiodic acid (HI), perchloric acid (HCIO4), or chloric acid (HCIO3).
[0147] The term “carbocation stabilizing solvent” as used herein refers to any polar protic solvent capable of forming dipole-dipole interactions with a carbocation, thereby stabilizing the carbocation.
[0148] The term "amino acid" refers to naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimetics that function in a manner similar to the naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as those amino acids that are later modified, e.g., hydroxyproline, g- carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. Amino acid analogs refers to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid, i.e., an a carbon that is bound to a hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an R group, e.g., homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, methionine methyl sulfonium. Such analogs have modified R groups (e.g. , norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but retain the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid. Amino acid mimetics refers to chemical compounds that have a structure that is different from the general chemical structure of an amino acid, but that functions in a manner similar to a naturally occurring amino acid. The terms “non-naturally occurring amino acid” and “unnatural amino acid” refer to amino acid analogs, synthetic amino acids, and amino acid mimetics which are not found in nature.
[0149] Amino acids may be referred to herein by either their commonly known three letter symbols or by the one-letter symbols recommended by the IUPAC-IUB Biochemical Nomenclature Commission. Nucleotides, likewise, may be referred to by their commonly accepted single-letter codes.
[0150] The terms "polypeptide," "peptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues, wherein the polymer may In embodiments be conjugated to a moiety that does not consist of amino acids. The terms apply to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acid residue is an artificial chemical mimetic of a corresponding naturally occurring amino acid, as well as to naturally occurring amino acid polymers and non-naturally occurring amino acid polymers.
[0151] An amino acid or nucleotide base “position” is denoted by a number that sequentially identifies each amino acid (or nucleotide base) in the reference sequence based on its position relative to the N-terminus (or 5'-end). An amino acid residue in a protein “corresponds” to a given residue when it occupies the same essential structural position within the protein as the given residue. Due to deletions, insertions, truncations, fusions, and the like that must be taken into account when determining an optimal alignment, in general the amino acid residue number in a test sequence determined by simply counting from the N- terminus will not necessarily be the same as the number of its corresponding position in the reference sequence. For example, in a case where a variant has a deletion relative to an aligned reference sequence, there will be no amino acid in the variant that corresponds to a position in the reference sequence at the site of deletion. Where there is an insertion in an aligned reference sequence, that insertion will not correspond to a numbered amino acid position in the reference sequence. In the case of truncations or fusions there can be stretches of amino acids in either the reference or aligned sequence that do not correspond to any amino acid in the corresponding sequence.
[0152] The terms “numbered with reference to” or “corresponding to,” when used in the context of the numbering of a given amino acid or polynucleotide sequence, refers to the numbering of the residues of a specified reference sequence when the given amino acid or polynucleotide sequence is compared to the reference sequence. [0153] As may be used herein, the terms “nucleic acid,” “nucleic acid molecule,” “nucleic acid oligomer,” “oligonucleotide,” “nucleic acid sequence,” “nucleic acid fragment” and “polynucleotide” are used interchangeably and are intended to include, but are not limited to, a polymeric form of nucleotides covalently linked together that may have various lengths, either deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides, or analogs, derivatives or modifications thereof. Different polynucleotides may have different three-dimensional structures, and may perform various functions, known or unknown. Non-limiting examples of polynucleotides include a gene, a gene fragment, an exon, an intron, intergenic DNA (including, without limitation, heterochromatic DNA), messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA, ribosomal RNA, a ribozyme, cDNA, a recombinant polynucleotide, a branched polynucleotide, a plasmid, a vector, isolated DNA of a sequence, isolated RNA of a sequence, a nucleic acid probe, and a primer. Polynucleotides useful in the methods of the disclosure may include natural nucleic acid sequences and variants thereof, artificial nucleic acid sequences, or a combination of such sequences.
[0154] A polynucleotide is typically composed of a specific sequence of four nucleotide bases: adenine (A); cytosine (C); guanine (G); and thymine (T) (uracil (U) for thymine (T) when the polynucleotide is RNA). Thus, the term “polynucleotide sequence” is the alphabetical representation of a polynucleotide molecule; alternatively, the term may be applied to the polynucleotide molecule itself. This alphabetical representation can be input into databases in a computer having a central processing unit and used for bioinformatics applications such as functional genomics and homology searching. Polynucleotides may optionally include one or more non-standard nucleotide(s), nucleotide analog(s) and/or modified nucleotides.

[0165] The term “modulator” refers to a composition that increases or decreases the level of a target molecule or the function of a target molecule or the physical state of the target of the molecule (e.g., a target may be a cellular component (e.g., protein, ion, lipid, virus, lipid droplet, nucleic acid, nucleotide, amino acid, protein, particle, organelle, cellular compartment, microorganism, vesicle, small molecule, protein complex, protein aggregate, or macromolecule)) relative to the absence of the composition.
[0166] The term “modulate” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning and refers to the act of changing or varying one or more properties. “Modulation” refers to the process of changing or varying one or more properties. For example, as applied to the effects of a modulator on a target protein, to modulate means to change by increasing or decreasing a property or function of the target molecule or the amount of the target molecule.

[0176] As used herein, the terms "metastasis," "metastatic," and "metastatic cancer" can be used interchangeably and refer to the spread of a proliferative disease or disorder, e.g., cancer, from one organ or another non-adjacent organ or body part. “Metastatic cancer” is also called “Stage IV cancer.” Cancer occurs at an originating site, e.g., breast, which site is referred to as a primary tumor, e.g., primary breast cancer. Some cancer cells in the primary tumor or originating site acquire the ability to penetrate and infiltrate surrounding normal tissue in the local area and/or the ability to penetrate the walls of the lymphatic system or vascular system circulating through the system to other sites and tissues in the body. A second clinically detectable tumor formed from cancer cells of a primary tumor is referred to as a metastatic or secondary tumor. When cancer cells metastasize, the metastatic tumor and its cells are presumed to be similar to those of the original tumor. Thus, if lung cancer metastasizes to the breast, the secondary tumor at the site of the breast consists of abnormal lung cells and not abnormal breast cells. The secondary tumor in the breast is referred to a metastatic lung cancer. Thus, the phrase metastatic cancer refers to a disease in which a subject has or had a primary tumor and has one or more secondary tumors. The phrases nonmetastatic cancer or subjects with cancer that is not metastatic refers to diseases in which subjects have a primary tumor but not one or more secondary tumors. For example, metastatic lung cancer refers to a disease in a subject with or with a history of a primary lung tumor and with one or more secondary tumors at a second location or multiple locations, e.g., in the breast.
[0177] The terms “cutaneous metastasis” or “skin metastasis” refer to secondary malignant cell growths in the skin, wherein the malignant cells originate from a primary cancer site (e.g., breast). In cutaneous metastasis, cancerous cells from a primary cancer site may migrate to the skin where they divide and cause lesions. Cutaneous metastasis may result from the migration of cancer cells from breast cancer tumors to the skin.
[0178] The term “visceral metastasis” refer to secondary malignant cell growths in the interal organs (e.g., heart, lungs, liver, pancreas, intestines) or body cavities (e.g., pleura, peritoneum), wherein the malignant cells originate from a primary cancer site (e.g., head and neck, liver, breast). In visceral metastasis, cancerous cells from a primary cancer site may migrate to the internal organs where they divide and cause lesions. Visceral metastasis may result from the migration of cancer cells from liver cancer tumors or head and neck tumors to internal organs. [0179] “G protein associated cancer” (also referred to herein as “G-protein related cancer”) refers to a cancer caused by aberrant activity or signaling of G protein or one or more of its subunits (e.g., alpha (a)-, beta (b)-, or gamma (g) subunits; Gas, ΰbb, or Gys).

[0184] An amino acid residue in Gas “corresponds” to a given residue when it occupies the same essential structural position within the protein as the given residue. For example, a selected residue in a selected protein corresponds to R201 of Gas protein when the selected residue occupies the same essential spatial or other structural relationship as R201 of Gas protein. In some embodiments, where a selected protein is aligned for maximum homology with the Gas protein, the position in the aligned selected protein aligning with R201 is said to correspond to R201. Further, a selected residue in a selected protein corresponds to C237 of Gas protein when the selected residue occupies the same essential spatial or other structural relationship as C237 of Gas protein. In some embodiments, where a selected protein is aligned for maximum homology with the Gas protein, the position in the aligned selected protein aligning with C237 is said to correspond to C237. Instead of a primary sequence alignment, a three dimensional structural alignment can also be used, e.g., where the structure of the selected protein is aligned for maximum correspondence with the Gas protein and the overall structures compared. In this case, an amino acid that occupies the same essential position as R201 in the structural model is said to correspond to the R201 residue, and an amino acid that occupies the same essential position as C237 in the structural model is said to correspond to the C237 residue. For example, R201 in SEQ ID NO: 1 corresponds to R187 in SEQ ID NO: 2, and C237 in SEQ ID NO: 1 corresponds to C223 in SEQ ID NO: 2.
[0185] The term “bone condition” as used herein refers to a disease, disorder or condition caused by abnormal bone tissues (e.g., osteoblast, osteoclast, osteocyte, and hematopoietic). In embodiments, the bone condition is caused by, but not limited to, cancerous or non- cancerous tissues, infection, osteoporosis, tumor, blood cells, and fibrous tissues, which is developed in various sites of bones of a subject such as thighbone, skull, ribs, pelvis, humerus, shinbone, trunk, sternum, wrist bones, tarsals, spine, shoulder blade, collar bone, radius, ulna, metacarpals, phalanges, kneecap, fibula, metatarsals and phalanges. In certain embodiments, the bone condition may be caused by cancerous bone tissues or noncancerous bone tissues. In certain embodiments, the bone condition may be related to abnormal fibrous tissue development/occurrence in place of normal bone. [0186] As used herein, the term “administering” is used in accordance with its plain and ordinary meaning and includes oral administration, administration as a suppository, topical contact, intravenous, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intralesional, intrathecal, intranasal or subcutaneous administration, or the implantation of a slow-release device, e.g., a mini- osmotic pump, to a subject. Administration is by any route, including parenteral and transmucosal (e.g., buccal, sublingual, palatal, gingival, nasal, vaginal, rectal, or transdermal). Parenteral administration includes, e.g., intravenous, intramuscular, intraarteriole, intradermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intraventricular, and intracranial. Other modes of delivery include, but are not limited to, the use of liposomal formulations, intravenous infusion, transdermal patches, etc. By “co-administer” it is meant that a composition described herein is administered at the same time, just prior to, or just after the administration of one or more additional therapies, for example cancer therapies such as chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy. The compounds of the invention can be administered alone or can be co-administered to the patient. Coadministration is meant to include simultaneous or sequential administration of the compounds individually or in combination (more than one compound). Thus, the preparations can also be combined, when desired, with other active substances (e.g., to reduce metabolic degradation). The compositions of the present invention can be delivered by transdermally, by a topical route, formulated as applicator sticks, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, gels, creams, ointments, pastes, jellies, paints, powders, and aerosols.
[0187] The term “administer (or administering) a Gas inhibitor” means administering a compound that decreases the activity or level (e.g. amount) of a signaling pathway of Gas to a subject. Administration may include, without being limited by mechanism, allowing sufficient time for the Gas inhibitor to reduce the activity of the Gas protein or for the Gas inhibitor to reduce one or more symptoms of a disease (e.g. cancer, wherein the Gas inhibitor may arrest the cell cycle, slow the cell cycle, reduce DNA replication, reduce cell replication, reduce cell growth, reduce metastasis, or cause cell death). In embodiments, the administering does not include administration of any active agent (e.g., a compound or Gas inhibitor) other than the recited active agent.
[0188] The term “aberrant” as used herein refers to different from normal. When used to describe enzymatic activity, aberrant refers to activity that is greater or less than a normal control or the average of normal non-diseased control samples. Aberrant activity may refer to an amount of activity that results in a disease, wherein returning the aberrant activity to a normal or non-disease-associated amount (e.g. by administering a compound or using a method as described herein), results in reduction of the disease or one or more disease symptoms.
[0189] The term “electrophilic chemical moiety” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary chemical meaning and refers to a monovalent chemical group that is electrophilic.
[0190] The terms “treating”, or “treatment” refers to any indicia of success in the therapy or amelioration of an injury, disease, pathology or condition, including any objective or subjective parameter such as abatement; remission; diminishing of symptoms or making the injury, pathology or condition more tolerable to the patient; slowing in the rate of degeneration or decline; making the final point of degeneration less debilitating; improving a patient’s physical or mental well-being. The treatment or amelioration of symptoms can be based on objective or subjective parameters; including the results of a physical examination, neuropsychiatric exams, and/or a psychiatric evaluation. The term "treating" and conjugations thereof, may include prevention of an injury, pathology, condition, or disease. In embodiments, treating is preventing. In embodiments, treating does not include preventing.
[0191] “Treating” or “treatment” as used herein (and as well-understood in the art) also broadly includes any approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results in a subject’s condition, including clinical results. Beneficial or desired clinical results can include, but are not limited to, alleviation or amelioration of one or more symptoms or conditions, diminishment of the extent of a disease, stabilizing (i.e., not worsening) the state of disease, prevention of a disease’s transmission or spread, delay or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, diminishment of the reoccurrence of disease, and remission, whether partial or total and whether detectable or undetectable. In other words, "treatment" as used herein includes any cure, amelioration, or prevention of a disease. Treatment may prevent the disease from occurring; inhibit the disease’s spread; relieve the disease’s symptoms, fully or partially remove the disease’s underlying cause, shorten a disease’s duration, or do a combination of these things.
[0192] "Treating" and "treatment" as used herein include prophylactic treatment.
Treatment methods include administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of an active agent. The administering step may consist of a single administration or may include a series of administrations. The length of the treatment period depends on a variety of factors, such as the severity of the condition, the age of the patient, the concentration of active agent, the activity of the compositions used in the treatment, or a combination thereof. It will also be appreciated that the effective dosage of an agent used for the treatment or prophylaxis may increase or decrease over the course of a particular treatment or prophylaxis regime. Changes in dosage may result and become apparent by standard diagnostic assays known in the art. In some instances, chronic administration may be required. For example, the compositions are administered to the subject in an amount and for a duration sufficient to treat the patient. In embodiments, the treating or treatment is not prophylactic treatment.
[0193] The term “sensitive” or “sensitive to” as used herein refers to a high degree of change in substance activity, biomarker indication, or condition associated with a disease (e.g. cancer) or a symptom of the disease (e.g., cancer) in response to a change introduced by treatment with or contact to an agent. For example, by treating with or contacting with an agent (e.g., Gas inhibitor or Gas mutant inhibitor), the substance activity, biomarker indication, or condition associated with a disease (e.g. cancer) or a symptom of the disease (e.g., cancer) varies substantially compared to those in absence of any treatment or contacting to the agent. In some embodiments, a disease (e.g. cancer) may be sensitive to a causative agent or inhibitory agent that may cause the disease. In some embodiments, a cancer relevant to or associated with aberrant protein activity (e.g., increased/suppressed protein activity or function) or mutation thereof may be sensitive to the inhibition of the protein. In some embodiments, a cancer caused or developed in association with aberrant Gas activity (e.g., increased/suppressed Gas activity or function) or mutation thereof may be sensitive to the inhibition of the Gas or its mutants.
[0194] The term “prevent” refers to a decrease in the occurrence of disease symptoms in a patient. As indicated above, the prevention may be complete (no detectable symptoms) or partial, such that fewer symptoms are observed than would likely occur absent treatment.
[0195] “Patient” or “subject in need thereof’ refers to a living organism suffering from or prone to a disease or condition that can be treated by administration of a pharmaceutical composition as provided herein. Non-limiting examples include humans, other mammals, bovines, rats, mice, dogs, monkeys, goat, sheep, cows, deer, and other non-mammalian animals. In some embodiments, a patient is human.
[0196] An “effective amount” is an amount sufficient for a compound to accomplish a stated purpose relative to the absence of the compound (e.g. achieve the effect for which it is administered, treat a disease, reduce enzyme activity, increase enzyme activity, reduce a signaling pathway, or reduce one or more symptoms of a disease or condition). An example of an “effective amount” is an amount sufficient to contribute to the treatment, prevention, or reduction of a symptom or symptoms of a disease, which could also be referred to as a “therapeutically effective amount.” A “reduction” of a symptom or symptoms (and grammatical equivalents of this phrase) means decreasing of the severity or frequency of the symptom(s), or elimination of the symptom(s). A “prophylactically effective amount” of a drug is an amount of a drug that, when administered to a subject, will have the intended prophylactic effect, e.g., preventing or delaying the onset (or reoccurrence) of an injury, disease, pathology or condition, or reducing the likelihood of the onset (or reoccurrence) of an injury, disease, pathology, or condition, or their symptoms. The hill prophylactic effect does not necessarily occur by administration of one dose, and may occur only after administration of a series of doses. Thus, a prophylactically effective amount may be administered in one or more administrations. An “activity decreasing amount,” as used herein, refers to an amount of antagonist required to decrease the activity of an enzyme relative to the absence of the antagonist. A “function disrupting amount,” as used herein, refers to the amount of antagonist required to disrupt the function of an enzyme or protein relative to the absence of the antagonist. The exact amounts will depend on the purpose of the treatment, and will be ascertainable by one skilled in the art using known techniques {see, e.g., Lieberman, Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms (vols. 1-3, 1992); Lloyd, The Art, Science and Technology of Pharmaceutical Compounding (1999); Pickar, Dosage Calculations (1999); and Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th Edition, 2003, Gennaro, Ed., Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins).
[0197] “Control” or “control experiment” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning and refers to an experiment in which the subjects or reagents of the experiment are treated as in a parallel experiment except for omission of a procedure, reagent, or variable of the experiment. In some instances, the control is used as a standard of comparison in evaluating experimental effects. In some embodiments, a control is the measurement of the activity (e.g., signaling pathway) of a protein in the absence of a compound as described herein (including embodiments, examples, figures, or Tables).
[0198] For any compound described herein, the therapeutically effective amount can be initially determined from cell culture assays. Target concentrations will be those concentrations of active compound(s) that are capable of achieving the methods described herein, as measured using the methods described herein or known in the art.
[0199] As is well known in the art, therapeutically effective amounts for use in humans can also be determined from animal models. For example, a dose for humans can be formulated to achieve a concentration that has been found to be effective in animals. The dosage in humans can be adjusted by monitoring compounds effectiveness and adjusting the dosage upwards or downwards, as described above. Adjusting the dose to achieve maximal efficacy in humans based on the methods described above and other methods is well within the capabilities of the ordinarily skilled artisan.
[0200] The term “therapeutically effective amount,” as used herein, refers to that amount of the therapeutic agent sufficient to ameliorate the disorder, as described above. For example, for the given parameter, a therapeutically effective amount will show an increase or decrease of at least 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 75%, 80%, 90%, or at least 100%. Therapeutic efficacy can also be expressed as “-fold” increase or decrease. For example, a therapeutically effective amount can have at least a 1.2-fold, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 5-fold, or more effect over a control.
[0201] Dosages may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient and the compound being employed. The dose administered to a patient, in the context of the present disclosure, should be sufficient to effect a beneficial therapeutic response in the patient over time. The size of the dose also will be determined by the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse side-effects. Determination of the proper dosage for a particular situation is within the skill of the practitioner. Generally, treatment is initiated with smaller dosages which are less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under circumstances is reached. Dosage amounts and intervals can be adjusted individually to provide levels of the administered compound effective for the particular clinical indication being treated. This will provide a therapeutic regimen that is commensurate with the severity of the individual's disease state.
[0202] As used herein, the term "administering" means oral administration, administration as a suppository, topical contact, intravenous, parenteral, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intralesional, intrathecal, intranasal or subcutaneous administration, or the implantation of a slow-release device, e.g., a mini-osmotic pump, to a subject. Administration is by any route, including parenteral and transmucosal (e.g., buccal, sublingual, palatal, gingival, nasal, vaginal, rectal, or transdermal). Parenteral administration includes, e.g., intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arteriole, intradermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intraventricular, and intracranial. Other modes of delivery include, but are not limited to, the use of liposomal formulations, intravenous infusion, transdermal patches, etc. In embodiments, the administering does not include administration of any active agent other than the recited active agent.
[0203] "Co-administer" it is meant that a composition described herein is administered at the same time, just prior to, or just after the administration of one or more additional therapies. The compounds provided herein can be administered alone or can be coadministered to the patient. Coadministration is meant to include simultaneous or sequential administration of the compounds individually or in combination (more than one compound). Thus, the preparations can also be combined, when desired, with other active substances (e.g. to reduce metabolic degradation). The compositions of the present disclosure can be delivered transdermally, by a topical route, or formulated as applicator sticks, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, gels, creams, ointments, pastes, jellies, paints, powders, and aerosols.
[0204] A “cell” as used herein, refers to a cell carrying out metabolic or other function sufficient to preserve or replicate its genomic DNA. A cell can be identified by well-known methods in the art including, for example, presence of an intact membrane, staining by a particular dye, ability to produce progeny or, in the case of a gamete, ability to combine with a second gamete to produce a viable offspring. Cells may include prokaryotic and eukaroytic cells. Prokaryotic cells include but are not limited to bacteria. Eukaryotic cells include but are not limited to yeast cells and cells derived from plants and animals, for example mammalian, insect (e.g., spodoptera) and human cells. Cells may be useful when they are naturally nonadherent or have been treated not to adhere to surfaces, for example by trypsinization.
[0205] The compounds described herein can be used in combination with one another, with other active agents known to be useful in treating a disease associated with cells expressing a disease associated cellular component, or with adjunctive agents that may not be effective alone, but may contribute to the efficacy of the active agent. [0206] In some embodiments, co-administration includes administering one active agent within 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, or 24 hours of a second active agent. Coadministration includes administering two active agents simultaneously, approximately simultaneously (e.g., within about 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minutes of each other), or sequentially in any order. In some embodiments, co-administration can be accomplished by co-formulation, i.e., preparing a single pharmaceutical composition including both active agents. In other embodiments, the active agents can be formulated separately. In another embodiment, the active and/or adjunctive agents may be linked or conjugated to one another.
[0207] “Anti-cancer agent” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning and refers to a composition (e.g., compound, drug, antagonist, inhibitor, modulator) having antineoplastic properties or the ability to inhibit the growth or proliferation of cells. In some embodiments, an anti-cancer agent is a chemotherapeutic. In some embodiments, an anticancer agent is an agent identified herein having utility in methods of treating cancer. In some embodiments, an anti-cancer agent is an agent approved by the FDA or similar regulatory agency of a country other than the USA, for treating cancer. In embodiments, an anti-cancer agent is an agent with antineoplastic properties that has not (e.g., yet) been approved by the FDA or similar regulatory agency of a country other than the USA, for treating cancer. Examples of anti-cancer agents include, but are not limited to, MEK (e.g., MEK1, MEK2, or MEK1 and MEK2) inhibitors (e.g., XL518, CI-1040, PD035901, selumetinib/AZD6244, GSK1120212/trametinib, GDC-0973, ARRY-162, ARRY-300, AZD8330, PD0325901, U0126, PD98059, TAK-733, PD318088, AS703026, BAY 869766), alkylating agents (e.g., cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, chlorambucil, busulfan, melphalan, mechlorethamine, uramustine, thiotepa, nitrosoureas, nitrogen mustards (e.g., mechloroethamine, cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, meiphalan), ethylenimine and methylmelamines (e.g., hexamethlymelamine, thiotepa), alkyl sulfonates (e.g., busulfan), nitrosoureas (e.g., carmustine, lomustine, semustine, streptozocin), triazenes (decarbazine)), anti-metabolites (e.g., 5- azathioprine, leucovorin, capecitabine, fludarabine, gemcitabine, pemetrexed, raltitrexed, folic acid analog (e.g., methotrexate), or pyrimidine analogs (e.g., fluorouracil, floxouridine, Cytarabine), purine analogs (e.g., mercaptopurine, thioguanine, pentostatin), etc.), plant alkaloids (e.g., vincristine, vinblastine, vinorelbine, vindesine, podophyllotoxin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, etc.), topoisomerase inhibitors (e.g., irinotecan, topotecan, amsacrine, etoposide (VP 16), etoposide phosphate, teniposide, etc.), antitumor antibiotics (e.g., doxorubicin, adriamycin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, actinomycin, bleomycin, mitomycin, mitoxantrone, plicamycin, etc.), platinum-based compounds (e.g., cisplatin, oxaloplatin, carboplatin), anthracenedione (e.g., mitoxantrone), substituted urea (e.g., hydroxyurea), methyl hydrazine derivative (e.g., procarbazine), adrenocortical suppressant (e.g., mitotane, aminoglutethimide), epipodophyllotoxins (e.g., etoposide), antibiotics (e.g., daunorubicin, doxorubicin, bleomycin), enzymes (e.g., L-asparaginase), inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling (e.g., U0126, PD98059, PD184352, PD0325901, ARRY-142886, SB239063, SP600125, BAY 43-9006, wortmannin, or LY294002, Syk inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors, antibodies (e.g., rituxan), gossyphol, genasense, polyphenol E, Chlorofusin, all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), bryostatin, tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, all trans retinoic acid, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide, gemcitabine, imatinib (Gleevec.RTM.), geldanamycin, 17-N-Allylamino-17-Demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), flavopiridol, LY294002, bortezomib, trastuzumab, BAY 11-7082, PKC412, PD184352, 20-epi-l, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D3;

A moiety of an anti-cancer agent is a monovalent anti-cancer agent (e.g., a monovalent form of an agent listed above). [0208] In therapeutic use for the treatment of a disease, compound utilized in the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered at the initial dosage of about 0.001 mg/kg to about 1000 mg/kg daily. A daily dose range of about 0.01 mg/kg to about 500 mg/kg, or about 0.1 mg/kg to about 200 mg/kg, or about 1 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg, or about 10 mg/kg to about 50 mg/kg, can be used. The dosages, however, may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient, the severity of the condition being treated, and the compound or drug being employed. For example, dosages can be empirically determined considering the type and stage of cancer diagnosed in a particular patient. The dose administered to a patient, in the context of the present invention, should be sufficient to affect a beneficial therapeutic response in the patient over time. The size of the dose will also be determined by the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse side effects that accompany the administration of a compound in a particular patient. Determination of the proper dosage for a particular situation is within the skill of the practitioner. Generally, treatment is initiated with smaller dosages which are less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under circumstances is reached. For convenience, the total daily dosage may be divided and administered in portions during the day, if desired.
[0209] The compounds described herein can be used in combination with one another, with other active agents known to be useful in treating cancer or with adjunctive agents that may not be effective alone, but may contribute to the efficacy of the active agent.
[0210] The term “associated” or “associated with” in the context of a substance or substance activity or function associated with a disease (e.g., a protein associated disease, disease associated with a cellular component) means that the disease (e.g., cancer) is caused by (in whole or in part), or a symptom of the disease is caused by (in whole or in part) the substance or substance activity or function or the disease or a symptom of the disease may be treated by modulating (e.g., inhibiting or activating) the substance (e.g., cellular component). As used herein, what is described as being associated with a disease, if a causative agent, could be a target for treatment of the disease.
[0211] Cancer model organism, as used herein, is an organism exhibiting a phenotype indicative of cancer, or the activity of cancer causing elements, within the organism. The term cancer is defined above. A wide variety of organisms may serve as cancer model organisms, and include for example, cancer cells and mammalian organisms such as rodents (e.g. mouse or rat) and primates (such as humans). Cancer cell lines are widely understood by those skilled in the art as cells exhibiting phenotypes or genotypes similar to in vivo cancers. Cancer cell lines as used herein includes cell lines from animals (e.g. mice) and from humans.
[0212] An “anticancer agent” as used herein refers to a molecule (e.g. compound, peptide, protein, nucleic acid) used to treat cancer through destruction or inhibition of cancer cells or tissues. Anticancer agents may be selective for certain cancers or certain tissues. In embodiments, anticancer agents herein may include epigenetic inhibitors and single- or multikinase inhibitors (e.g., G-protein inhibitor or Gas inhibitor).
II. Compounds
[0213] Provided herein, inter alia, are compounds. The compounds may be state-selective Gas labeling molecules, for example, based on disulfide tethering. The compounds may lable the somatic cysteine mutant selectively over all other cysteines present in the Gas protein, for example, forming a covalent irreversible bonding to the protein.

[0422] Pharmaceutical compositions are administered in a manner appropriate to the disease to be treated (or prevented). An appropriate dose and a suitable duration and frequency of administration will be determined by such factors as the condition of the patient, the type and severity of the patient’s disease, the particular form of the active ingredient, and the method of administration. In general, an appropriate dose and treatment regimen provides the composition(s) in an amount sufficient to provide therapeutic and/or prophylactic benefit (e.g., an improved clinical outcome, such as more frequent complete or partial remissions, or longer disease-free and/or overall survival, or a lessening of symptom severity. Optimal doses are generally determined using experimental models and/or clinical trials. In some embodiments, the optimal dose depends upon the body mass, weight, or blood volume of the patient.
[0423] Oral doses typically range from about 1.0 mg to about 1000 mg, one to four times, or more, per day.
[0424] Disclosed compounds are administered to subjects or patients (animals and humans) in need of such treatment in dosages that will provide optimal pharmaceutical efficacy. It will be appreciated that the dose required for use in any particular application will vary from patient to patient, not only with the particular compound or composition selected, but also with the route of administration, the nature of the condition being treated, the age and condition of the patient, concurrent medication or special diets then being followed by the patient, and other factors, with the appropriate dosage ultimately being at the discretion of the attendant physician. For treating clinical conditions and diseases noted above, a contemplated compound disclosed herein is administered orally, subcutaneously, topically, parenterally, by inhalation spray or rectally in dosage unit formulations containing conventional non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants and vehicles. Parenteral administration include subcutaneous injections, intravenous or intramuscular injections or infusion techniques.
Effective Dosages
[0425] The pharmaceutical composition may include compositions wherein the active ingredient is contained in a therapeutically effective amount, i.e., in an amount effective to achieve its intended purpose. The actual amount effective for a particular application will depend, inter alia, on the condition being treated.
[0426] The dosage and frequency (single or multiple doses) of compounds administered can vary depending upon a variety of factors, including route of administration; size, age, sex, health, body weight, body mass index, and diet of the recipient; nature and extent of symptoms of the disease being treated; presence of other diseases or other health-related problems; kind of concurrent treatment; and complications from any disease or treatment regimen. Other therapeutic regimens or agents can be used in conjunction with the methods and compounds disclosed herein.
[0427] As is well known in the art, therapeutically effective amounts for use in humans can also be determined from animal models. For example, a dose for humans can be formulated to achieve a concentration that has been found to be effective in animals. The dosage in humans can be adjusted by monitoring compounds effectiveness and adjusting the dosage upwards or downwards, as described above. Adjusting the dose to achieve maximal efficacy in humans based on the methods described above and other methods is well within the capabilities of the ordinarily skilled artisan.
[0428] Dosages may be varied depending upon the requirements of the subject and the compound being employed. The dose administered to a subject, in the context of the pharmaceutical compositions presented herein, should be sufficient to effect a beneficial therapeutic response in the subject over time. The size of the dose also will be determined by the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse side effects. Generally, treatment is initiated with smaller dosages, which are less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under circumstances is reached.
[0429] Dosage amounts and intervals can be adjusted individually to provide levels of the administered compounds effective for the particular clinical indication being treated. This will provide a therapeutic regimen that is commensurate with the severity of the individual's disease state.
[0430] Utilizing the teachings provided herein, an effective prophylactic or therapeutic treatment regimen can be planned that does not cause substantial toxicity and yet is entirely effective to treat the clinical symptoms demonstrated by the particular patient. This planning should involve the careful choice of active compound by considering factors such as compound potency, relative bioavailability, patient body weight, presence and severity of adverse side effects, preferred mode of administration, and the toxicity profile of the selected agent.

EXAMPLES
[0484] State-selective Gas labeling molecules based on disulfide tethering are demonstrated. The leading compounds can lable the somatic cysteine mutant selectively over all other cysteines present in the protein. Based on (i) the structure activity relationships and (ii)GDP orGTP state dependent labelling, the leading compounds are excellent starting points for discovery of covalent irreversible (likely acrylamide) based drug candidates, which can yield enhanced drug candidate for Gas associated cancer or disease. In particular, the leading compounds may be used to treat a cancer caused by mutations (e.g., R201C) in the GNAS gene.
Example 1. Design of Inhibitors of Cancer-associated Mutant GNAS
[0485] Deep sequencing reveals that G-protein mutations occur in several kinds of cancers [1]. Some of the remarkable mutations were observed in GNAS, which encodes the a-subunit of the stimulatory G protein (Gas). GNAS was first proved to be a putative oncogene that was abnormally activated in human growth hormone (GH) -secreting pituitary tumors in 1987 [2, 3]; activating mutations were identified in about 43% of 42 GH-secreting pituitary tumors, and they were responsible for the high secretory activity of such tumors [4]. Since then, activating mutations of GNAS have been revealed to contribute to progression and metastasis of several other kinds of cancers. For example, to understand the pathogenesis of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN, a precursor to invasive adenocarcinoma), Jian Wu et al. searched the mutations in IPMN patients, and found that 66% of 132 patients carried activating mutations at codon 201 of GNAS[5 According to the catalogue of somatic mutations in cancer (COSMIC) v62, approximately 4.2% of all cancer types harbor activating mutations in GNAS[] About 64% of such GNAS mutations result in R201C [1]. Arg201 can stabilize the pentavalent phosphate intermediate thus facilitates GTP hydrolysis; therefore mutation of this residue disrupts the GTPase activity of Gas, keeping Gas in a constitutively active state [6, 7].
Using small molecules to specifically inhibit the cancer-associated mutant Gas(R201C), would be a promising strategy for the therapy of cancers in which GNAS mutations occur. However, only a few small molecules have been reported to be Gas inhibitors, and their selectivity between different subtypes of G-proteins is poor. No inhibitor that selectively targets Gas(R201C) has been reported. In this proposal, I will take advantage of the similarity of Gas(R201C) with K-Ras(G12C) and Gaq to design Gas(R201C) -specific inhibitors. Such a design is based on the structure of Gaq with a non-covalent inhibitor [8], and the crystal structures of K-Ras(G12C) with inhibitors that’s covalently linked with Cysl2 [9 11]. Activity assays are also proposed to evaluate the potency of the designed inhibitors.
[0486] The G-proteins are composed of Ga, ΰb and Gy subunits. Among them, Ga can form a heterotrimer with ΰbg when one molecule of GDP is located in the nucleotide-binding pocket of Ga. The GDP-bound Ga is inactive, and can be activated by the corresponding GPCR. As for Gas, it can be activated by b2 adrenergic receptor ^2AR). Association of an agonist to the extracellular side of b2AR induces a conformational change of the intracellular side of the b2AR; then b2AR recruits the Gas-Obg heterotrimer, and induces a rearrangement of the “P-loop” of the nucleotide-binding pocket of Gas, leading to GDP release and GTP binding [12]· The nucleotide exchange results in the dissociation of Gas from both b2AR and the ΰbg dimer [6]. After dissociation, the GTP-bound Gas binds with and activates adenylyl cyclase (AC), which can catalyze the conversion of ATP to cAMP [i3]. Gas has relatively slow GTPase activity. The hydrolysis of the GTP molecule in the nucleotide-binding pocket of Gas to GDP induces the release of AC from Gas. Then the GDP -bound Gas associates with ΰbg, waiting for P2AR to activate it again.
[0487] The above cycle maintains the activity of Gas at a proper level. But the cancer- associated mutation R201C breaks this cycle by locking Gas in its GTP-bound state. The constitutive activation of Gas can promote hyperplasia of cells in several kinds of cancers [1]. So using small molecules to inhibit the abnormally activated Gas would be a promising strategy for the therapy of cancer with a R201C mutation in GNAS. Because of the mosaic nature of GNAS in cancer patients [14]’ the inhibitors should specifically target the mutant Gas but not the wild-type Gas to avoid side effects.
[0488] So far, only a few types of G-protein inhibitors have been reported. They targeted different steps of G-protein activation. Some of them could disrupt the interaction between G- proteins and their receptors. For example, A small peptide, pGlu-Gln-D-Trp-Phe-D-Trp-D- Trp-Met-NIL·, was reported to competitively inhibit the binding of Gi (or Go) to M2 muscarinic cholinergic receptor or the binding of Gs to P2AR [15]· Another compound, BIM- 46187, was first reported to bind to the Ga subunit and block the receptor-G protein interaction with a poor selectivity [16]’ but in a recent study, BIM-46187 preferentially inhibited Gaq by blocking GTP entry [17]· Some other compounds were used to inhibit replacement of GDP with GTP, such as compound YM-254890, which was reported to selectively block GDP-GTP exchange of Gaq/n [18] Suramin and its analogues are another class of G-protein inhibitors, but the molecular mechanism of inhibition is controversial [19 21]· None of these inhibitors was reported to selectively target Gas, let alone specific inhibitors of the cancer-associated mutant Gas(R201C).
[0489] It is aimed to develop small molecule inhibitors to specifically inhibit the cancer- associated mutant Gas(R201C). To this end, the specific aims include 1) design of leading compounds that bind Gas; 2) modification of the compounds to covalently bond Cys201 of Gas(R201C); 3) structural analysis of the binding of these compounds with Gas(R201C); 4) evaluation of the potency of these compounds in cellular models.
Methods
[0490] Within G-protein family, Gaq shares a sequence identity of 42.5% with Gas.
Crystal structure of Gaq in complex with a specific inhibitor named YM254890 has been reported, giving us the only example of small molecule inhibitor-G-protein binding [8]. In addition, G-proteins show similar features to other GTPase, such as the Ras family proteins. Their GDP-bound state is inactive, while the GTP-bound state is active in signal transduction. Structural analysis of Ras proteins revealed that two regions largely switched during the replacement of GDP with GTP [22]· The two regions, named switch I and II, are also involved in nucleotide-exchange in G-proteins [7, i3].
Design of leading compounds that can bind Cys201 of Gas(R201C)
[0491] A crystal structure of Gaq-YM254890 complexed with Gaq has been reported because Gaq is closely related to Gas. YM254890, a cyclic depsipeptide produced by Chromobacterium sp. QS3666, was first identified as a platelet aggregation inhibitor [23], then it turned out to be a novel Gaq/11 -selective inhibitor [18]. The cyclic scaffold of YM254890 is linked by ester bonds and amide bonds, and the nitrogen atoms of the amides are highly methylated. The moiety around the cyclic scaffold consists of aliphatic and aromatic residues, indicating that hydrophobic interactions involve in YM254890- Gaq binding [24].
[0492] In the crystal structure of Gaq-GDP-YM254890 complex, YM254890 located in a pocket between the Ras-like domain and helical domain (FIG. IB, PDB code 1 AZT). The a- helix and b-sheet that linked by switch I, as well as switch I, surround YM254890, playing an important role for binding. Binding of YM254890 locks Gaq in a GDP -bound state, thus inhibits Gaq activation [8]. Crystal structure of Gas-GTPyS complex can be superimposed with that of Gaq-GDP-YM254890 complex with a root mean squared deviation (r.m.s.d.) of 2.3 A (FIG. 1C). A similar pocket surrounded by switch I in Gas provides potential inhibitor-binding sites.
[0493] To design leading compounds that can bind Gas, I carefully analyzed the interactions between YM254890 and Gaq (FIG. ID). The phenyl group of YM254890 inserts into a hydrophobic pocket of the Ras-like domain of Gaq. It was reported that replacement of the hydrophobic residues of switch I with hydrophilic residues severely weakened the inhibition effect [8]. Switch I was thus supposed to determine the sensitivity of G-proteins to YM254890 [8]. Besides, there are three hydrogen bonds between YM254890 and Arg60 of Gaq, signifying the importance of Arg60. Comparison reveals that most of the key residues are conserved in Gas. But there are also some obvious differences between Gas and Gaq that may explain the inability of YM254890 to inhibit Gas. These differences include K91 vs. F75, D94 vs. L78, F206 vs. 1190, T210 vs. Y192 andK211 vs. P193. Such differences result a less hydrophobic pocket, and also change the shape of the pocket. [0494] Leading compounds that can bind Gas could obtained by modification of YM254890. Residue (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr of YM254890 is adjacent to F75 and L78 of Gaq. To change the specificity from Gaq to Gas, (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr could be replaced with hydrophilic residues to bind K91 and D94 in Gas. The isopropyl group of (2 S , 3 R) - b-HyLeu- 2 interact with 1190 in Gaq, but replacement of 1190 with F206 in Gas narrows the pocket.
So the isopropyl group could be changed to a smaller group, such as methyl group, to be accommodated by F206. 1 think such a rational design could help us obtain the leading compounds.
Modification of the leading compounds to covalently bond Cys201 of Gas(R201C) [0495] The aim of this proposal is to develop small molecules to specifically inhibit the cancer-associated mutant Gas(R201C) but not wild-type Gas, so the leading compounds should be further modified. Design of specific inhibitors of cancer-associated mutant K- Ras(G12C) provides good examples of using cysteine-reactive small molecules in drug design.
[0496] K-Ras, an important member in the Ras family, also has cancer-associated mutants. One of these mutants, G12C, disrupts the GTPase activity of K-Ras, keeping K-Ras in a GTP-bound state. Small molecule inhibitors specifically target the mutant but not wild-type K-Ras have been reported by two groups [9 11]· These inhibitors harbor electrophilic groups that can be covalently linked with Cysl2 of the mutant K-Ras. Such electrophilic groups guarantee the specificity of the inhibitors.
[0497] Noting that R201C mutation of Gas is just located in switch I, and is adjacent to the YM254890-binding pocket, I propose to introduce a cysteine-reactive group in the leading compounds to bond Cys201 of the mutant Gas. Residue (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr of YM254890 may be a proper position to introduce cysteine-reactive groups. Comparing to other positions on YM254890, (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr is more close to R183 (corresponding to R201 in Gas). In addition, a surface grove lays between the helical domain and Ras-like domain; R183 and (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr can be connected by a linker across this grove (FIG. IE). Therefore, a linker would be added to the side chain or main chain of (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr; the other head of the linker would be linked with various cysteine-reactive groups. The length and composition of the linker would be varied to acquire a better inhibitor. [0498] Specifically, a long linker is needed because the distance between the a-carbon of R183 and the main chain of (2S,3R)-N,0-Me2Thr is nearly 10 A (FIG. IF). Considering that there are several hydrophilic residues in the grove between the helical domain and Ras-like domain in Gas (FIG. 1G), a linker with certain hydrophilicity would be used. Such a linker might also increase the binding affinity of the inhibitor, and fix switch I in an inactive conformation.
[0499] As for the cysteine-reactive groups, because cysteine has long been an ideal residue for selective modification of proteins, several classes of reactive groups have been developed to chemically modify cysteine residues, such as a-halocarbonyls (e.g., iodoacetamides), maleimides, vinyl sulfones, etc. [25, 26]. Besides, a series of cysteine proteases inhibitors that can covalently modify the cysteine residue have been reported, such as epoxysuccinyl derivatives and O-acyl hydroxamates [27]. These reactive groups can be employed to link the leading compounds with Cys201.
Structural analysis of the binding of these compounds with Gas(R201C);
[0500] Gas can be easily over-expressed in E. coli [28] and in insect cells [29]. Crystal structures of Gas -GTPyS complex, Gas-adenylyl cyclase complex, and the ternary complex of Gas-G y- 2AR, have been reported [7, 13, 29]. So the crystal structure of Gas or Gas(R201C) in complex with its inhibitor may be obtained.
Evaluation of the potency of these inhibitors
[0501] An in vitro assay system can be used to evaluate the inhibition effects of the designed compounds on the activities of Gas and the cancer-associated mutant Gas(R201C). Covalent modification of Gas(R201C) can be detected by mass spectrometry as described in the study of K-Ras(G12C) inhibitors that carried by Kevan Shokat’s laboratory in 2013 [11]· After modification, nucleotide exchange rates on Gas can be determined by a fluorescence- based assay[30, 31] .
Potential Problems and alternatives
[0502] It might be possible that simple modifications of YM254890 cannot give us the desired Gas-specific leading compounds, and even if we get the leading compounds, we might fail to introduce a proper linker with a cysteine-reactive group. If so, other strategies would be considered. As I mentioned above, specific inhibitors of K-Ras(G12C) have been reported by two groups. One is Kevan Shokat’s group. They have developed a series of compounds with cysteine-reactive groups to covalently modify Cysl2 of K-Ras(G12C), while the aryl groups of these compounds bound into a pocket around switch II (not shown, PDB code: 4NMM) [11]· This binding disturbed switch II, and thus convert the nucleotide preference of K- Ras(G12C) to favour GDP over GTP[11]. There is also a similar pocket around switch II in Gas that has the potential to bind with inhibitors; besides, the location of Cys201 gives it the similar advantage to Cysl2 in K-Ras for inhibitor design (not shown, PDB code: 4NMM). The other is Nathanael S. Gray’s group. They used GDP analogues to occupy the nucleotide binding pocket, thus block the entry of GTP; these GDP analogues also contain a cysteine - reactive group to form covalent bond with Cysl2 (not shown, PDB code: 4NMM) [9, 10]. So we could employ similar strategies to design Gas(R201C)-specific inhibitors.
[0503] Somatic mutations of GNAS (encoding Gas) occur in approximately 4.2% of all cancer types [1]. For example, statistics show that 11.8% of 473 pancreas cancer samples and 27.9% of 816 pituitary cancer samples harbor GNAS mutations [1]; 66% of 132 intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) patients carried a GNAS mutation [5]. These mutations lead to constitutive activation of Gas, and promote tumourigenesis. About 64% of the cancer- associated mutations of GNAS change Arg201 of Gas to a cysteine residue (R201C). Therefore, specific inhibitors of the R201C mutant of Gas would be effective tools for cancer therapies. Development of such inhibitors is just the aim of the proposed research.

Example 2. In Vitro Assays
Mesuaring The GDP dissociation rate of Gas R201C is slower than its GTP hydrolysis rate
[0505] The R201C mutant Gas can bypass the need for GTP binding by directly activating GDP-bound Gas through stabilization of an intramolecular hydrogen bond network between the P-loop, switch III and switch II of Gas. In order to check whether the R201C mutant in cells would be mostly in the GTP-bound form thus rendering our biochemical findings about the active GDP-bound not physiologically relevant, the single turnover GTP hydrolysis rate (feat) and the GDP dissociation rate (kos) of R201C and wild-type Gas were measured and compared. The ratio of Gas in the GTP-bound state should be less than koif/(koif+ feat) when the GTP binding and hydrolysis cycle reaches a steady state. In the presence of excess GOy subunits and millimolar Mg2+, only 11% of the R201C mutant was in the GTP state without stimulation by GPCRs.
[0506] The calculation using a [y-32P]GTP binding assay is shown in FIG. 2. The R201C mutant was pre-incubated in a low Mg2+ buffer (1 mM EDTA + 0.1 mM MgCh) with 400 mM GTP that is close to the physiological concentration of GTP; 20 nM [y-32P]GTP was added as an internal standard. After the binding of [y-32P]GTP to the R201C mutant reached a maximum, the concentration of free Mg2+ was increased to about 1.1 mM (1 mM EDTA +
2.5 mM MgCh) and the changes of bound [y-32P]GTP with time were measured. The bound [y-32P]GTP decreased to about 30% of the maximum after 4 hours, which can be explained by the faster GTP hydrolysis than GDP dissociation. When GOy subunits were added together with MgCh (GOy:Gas = 1.5:1, molar ratio), the bound [y-32P]GTP further decreased to below 10% of the maximum after 4 hours, which supports the finding that GOy subunits decrease the rate of GDP dissociation. In contrast, when the free Mg2+ concentration was kept at 0.1 mM (1 mM EDTA + 0.1 mM MgCh), the bound [y-32P]GTP only slowly decreased to about 80% of the maximum, which may be due to the instability of the R201C mutant in the low Mg2+ buffer.
[0507] The two pieces of evidence demonstrate that the R201C mutant is not locked in the GTP state, instead, without GPCR stimulation it would be mainly in the GDP state in cells considering that the presence of GOy subunits and millimolar Mg2+ dramatically decrease the rate of GDP dissociation.
Correction of the misactivation of Gas(R201Q by an arginine mimic
[0508] A crystal structure of the R201C/C237S mutant was solved and shown in FIG. 1A. Structure analysis indicates the importance of the interactions between E50 and ammonium hΐ and t|2 of R201 in maintaining GDP-bound Gas in an inactive state. The R201C mutation results in the loss of ammonium hΐ and t|2 of R201 thus freeing E50 to interact with R258 and R265 to indirectly stabilize switch II in an active-like conformation. Based on this finding, replacing the side chain of R201C with a close mimic of native arginine which contains N(h1) and N(h2) may correct the misactivation of the R201C mutant. For example, acrylamidine (Acr) can modify Cys237 and Cys201 in the R201C mutant. In the R201C/C237S double mutant, only Cys201 can be modified by Acr. This modification converts cysteine to an arginine mimic (FIG. 3A). [0509] Also effect of modifying C201 with Acr on the adenylyl cyclase-activating activity of GDP-bound Gas(R201C/C237S) was calculated. In the presence of GDP and Gpi/Gy2(C68S), the unmodified Gas(R201C/C237S) showed significantly higher activity than Gas(C237S) (FIG. 3B), consistent with our finding that Gas(R201C) has a higher activity than WT Gas. After Gas(R201C/C237S) was modified by Acr (free Acr was removed by gel filtration), its ability to activate adenylyl cyclase was lowered to the same level as that of Gas(C237S) (FIG. 3B). Particularly, site specific modification of C201 with Acr can effectively restore the canonical role of GDP to Gas disrupted by the R201C mutation, supporting the role of N(h1) and N(h2) in restraining the GDP-bound form in a state that does not activate adenylyl cyclase in the presence of ΰbg subunits. It is also demonstrated that this modification can partly restore the GTPase activity of Gas(R201 C/C237 S) . The ¾* of Gas(C237S) is 1.539 ± 0.153 min 1 (measured at 0 °C), slightly higher than that of WT Gas (FIG. 3C). The unmodified R201C/C237S mutant showed a slow feat (0.022 ± 0.002 min 1) even at 20 °C, similar to that of Gas(R201C). Following Acr modification of the R201C/C237S mutant its feat increased to 0.471 ± 0.043 min 1 (measured at 0 °C), about 30% of that of Gas(C237S). These results show the possibility of correction of the misactivation of Gas(R201C) through covalently modifying C201 with compounds that can mimic the function of arginine.
Identification of lead compounds that covalently modify C201 in Gas (112010
[0510] A tethering screening was used to identify compounds that can covalently modify C201. Untagged recombinant Gas(R201C) at 2 mM was reacted with 200 mM fragment and 200 pM bME in 20 mM HEPES, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 30 pM MgC12, 50 pM GDP for 2 h at ambient temperature. The extent of modification was assessed by electrospray mass spectrometry using a Waters LCT-Premier LC/ESI-MS.
[0511] In the related studies, a native cysteine, C237, can be more reactive than C201 so that all the compounds that efficiently modified Gas(R201C) were finally proved to target C237 but not C201. Therefore, instead of GDP -bound Gas(R201C) the double mutant Gas(R201C/C237S) was used this time. After screening about 1600 disulphide fragments, a class of compounds that modified Gas(R201C/C237S) but not Gas(C237S) was identified. These compounds are distinguished by containing a urea moiety (FIG. 4A) that likely mimics the guanidine group in arginine. Among them, compound 1H11 gave the highest modification ratio. [0512] The reactivity of C201 and C237 against compound 1H11 were compared. Not surprisingly, when the concentration of the compound was lowered from 200 mM to 50 mM, compound 1H11 only modified about 20% of the GDP-bound Gas(R201C/C237S) even when BME (beta mercaptoethanol) concentration was 0 while modified nearly 100% of GDP-bound wild-type Gas in the same condition (FIG. 4B, circle and triangle curves), indicating that in the GDP -bound state C237 is more reactive than C201 against this compound. But when GDP in Gas was replaced with GNP (5'-Guanylyl imidodiphosphate, a non-hydrolyzable GTP analog), the reactivity of C201 was dramatically increased, with a modification ratio over 50% even at a BME concentration of 1000 mM (FIG. 4B, reverse triangle curve); in contrast, the reactivity of C237 was much lower (FIG. 4B, square curve). These results demonstrate that compound 1H11 prefers C201 in the GNP-bound Gas. Such a preference makes 1H11 a good lead compound for the development of inhibitors that selectively target the active GTP-bound Gas. One possibility is that the g-phosphate in GNP directly binds to the urea moiety in compound 1H11. To get information to optimize 1H11 , the crystal structure of the GNP-bound Gas(R201C/C237S) in complex with 1H11 and effects of 1 HI 1 on the GTPase activity and adenylyl cyclase-activating activity of Gas would be obtained.
[0513] Chemotherapy is one of the mainstays of cancer treatment. However, this approach is often troubled by severe side effects mainly because anti -cancer drugs target both cancer cells and healthy cells. Cancer is caused by mutations in genes that accelerate (oncogenes) or suppress (tumor suppressors) tumor growth. Specifically targeting the mutant genes or the mutant proteins encoded by these genes is theoretically an ideal strategy to decrease the side effects of anti-cancer drugs but usually cannot be achieved. In the cases that the cancer- causing mutations result in a cysteine residue in the mutation site, inhibitors that covalently modify the cysteine residue have shown great selectivity of the mutant proteins over the normal proteins. Indeed, activating mutations in an oncogene called GNAS that encodes the protein Gas were identified in 27.9% of 816 pituitary cancer samples and 66% of a type of pancreatic cancer patients. More than half of these mutations result in the substitution of Arg201 of Gas by a cysteine residue. In recent research, a small molecule named acrylamidine can correct the misactivation of Gas(R201C) by converting Cys201 to an arginine mimic. Also identified is a disulphide fragment that preferentially modifies Cys201 in the active GTP-bound form of Gas. Both small molecules are not drug-like molecules, however, they are good starting point for development of drug-like molecules.
